Objective:To examine differences among recovered Bipolar Ⅰ, Bipolar Ⅱ patients and controls. Methods: Using NEO-PI-R, HAMD and BRMS, we investigated 59 recovered bipolar patients and 59 normal controls matched for age, gender and education. Results: Compared with controls, Bipolar Ⅱ patients showed significant differences in personality traits of Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Openness to Experience. While Bipolar Ⅰ patients obtained higher scores on Gregariousness, Bipolar Ⅱ patients scored higher on traits of Depression, Impulsiveness and Aesthetics. Scores on Warmth were higher in Bipolar Ⅰ patients than in Bipolar Ⅱ patients. Conclusion: Personality traits of recovered bipolar patients were markedly different from matched controls, whereas the differences between Bipolar Ⅰ and Bipolar Ⅱ patients were small.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of charitable behavior and life satisfaction in college students.Methods:Totally 194 college students were surveyed by using the prisoner's dilemmatask to assess charitable behavior tendency,the donating experiment to assess the actual donation money and Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS)for life satisfaction.The partial correlation analysis and linear regression were used to explore the re-lationship of charitable behavior tendency,donation and life satisfaction.Results:There was significant positive cor-relation between charitable behavior tendency and SWLS scores (r =0.22,P <0.05).The scores of actual donation were significantly and positively correlated with SWLS scores (r =0.19,P <0.05).The scores of life satisfaction of college students were positively associated with both scores of charitable behavior tendency(β=0.21,P <0.05) and donation (β=0.19,P <0.05 ).Conclusion:It suggests that individuals with higher fife satisfaction may be likely to do charitable behavior.

Objective: To explore the risk factors in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) combining atrial ifbrillation (AF) and to identify the predictive factors for AF recurrence after cardio version. Methods: A total of 246 CHF patients treated in our hospital were divided into 2 groups: CHF+AF (AF) group,n=71 and CHF without AF (Non-AF) group,n=175. The baseline information was recorded. The risk factors for AF occurrence were screened by Logistic regression analysis. There were 66 AF patients with successful cardio verse and they were followed-up for 18 months, the predictors for AF recurrence were studied by Cox regression analysis. Results: The baseline information showed that age, CHF duration, left atria diameter (LAD), the levels of BNP, uric acid and serum creatinine in AF group were all higher than those in Non-AF group, allP<0.05. Logistic regression analysis presented that age (RR=1.89, 95% CI 1.08-3.31,P<0.05), CHF duration (RR=1.35, 95% CI 1.05-1.74,P<0.05), BNP level (RR=1.82, 95% CI 1.30-2.53,P<0.01), LAD (RR=1.51, 95% CI 1.09-2.08,P<0.05) were the risk factors for AF occurrence. Cox regression analysis indicated that BNP level (RR=1.30, 95% CI 1.09-1.54,P<0.01) and LAD (RR=1.74, 95% CI 1.30-2.34, P<0.01) were the predictors for AF recurrence. Conclusion: The elder age, longer CHF duration, increased BNP level and LAD were the risk factors for AF occurrence in CHF patients. The increased BNP level and LAD were the objective predictors for AF recurrence after cardio version.

Objective To investigate the influence of combined thrombolysis therapy on clinical effects for short -and long -term of patients with acute cerebral infarction caused by sudden occlusion of anterior and posterior circulation.Methods 75 patients with cerebral infarction caused by sudden occlusion of anterior and posterior circulation were chosen and divided into A group (46 patients)with sudden occlusion of anterior circulation and B group (29 patients)with sudden occlusion of posterior circulation by comprehensive therapy for intra -arterial thrombolysis combined with mechanical crushing and dilation.The recanalization rate,the excellent and good rate of ADL -Barthel score,NIHSS score and GCS score before and after treatment,intracranial hemorrhage rate and mortality rate of two groups were compared.Results The recanalization rates of A group and B group were 50.00%(23 /46), 89.66%(26 /29).After treatment,the excellent and good rates of ADL -Barthel score of A group and B group were 58.70%(27 /46),62.07%(18 /29).The recanalization rate of B group was significantly higher than A group(χ2 =7.44,P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the excellent and good rate of ADL -Barthel score after treatment between the two groups(χ2 =1.21,P >0.05).After treatment,the NIHSS scores of A group and B group were (8.66 ±2.48)points,(8.72 ±2.51 )points,the GCS scores of A group and B group were (12.89 ± 3.61)points,(13.10 ±3.72)points.There were no significant differences in NIHSS score and GCS score after treatment between the two groups(t =1.47,1.52,all P >0.05).After treatment,the intracranial hemorrhage rate of B group was significantly lower than A group (χ2 =8.16,P <0.05 ).There was no significant difference in the mortality rate between the two groups(χ2 =0.98,P >0.05).Conclusion Compared with acute cerebral infarction caused by sudden occlusion of anterior circulation,combined thrombolysis therapy in treatment of patients with sudden occlusion of posterior circulation has advantages including higher recanalization rate and lower risk of intracranial hemorrhage.

Liver transplantation is the only way to treat end-stage liver disease. In order to overcome the shortage of donor, marginal donors have been used widely, which bring about a series of problems. Machine perfusion can stimulate the circulation in vivo and is beneficial for the protection of liver. It could also improve the graft function and reduce postoperative complications, which makes it a hot spot in recent years. The aim of this study is to summarize the current status and prospects of application of machine perfusion on clinical liver transplantation.

Objective To investigate the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1(STAT1) and matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP3)′s genetic expressions and their clinical significance on urothelial carcinoma after renal transplantation. Methods Fifty-one patients with urothelial carcinoma were recruited in this study. Sixteen of them who had renal transplant were in the experimental group and 35 of them without renal transplant were in the control group. All the cases had been proved postoperatively having transitional cell carcinoma by histopathological study. The human genome oligo arrays were used to analyze the gene expression spectrum of urothelial carcinoma after transplantation, aiming the STAT1 and MMP3's expression. Real time RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining were used to compare the differences in the 2 groups. Results The experimental group showed that there were 35 genes up-regulated compared with the control group. Of them, 23had known gene function or partly known, and 12 had unknown gene function. There were 76 genes down-regulated. Of them, 46 had known gene function or partly known, and 30 had unknown gene function. After pathway analysis of the differentially expressed genes, there were 23 groups of pathways which had significant differences (P＜0.05), referring to the aspects of immunosuppressive and tumor growth. The levels of STAT1 and MMP3 expressions had significant differences between the 2groups(P＜0.05)as well. Conclusions The differential expression of urothelial tumor genes is obvious between patient who has had renal transplant and who has not. There are many aspects that are related to the tumor's growth like signaling pathways regulating proliferation, apoptosis of tumor cells, tumor angiogenesis and the tumor metastasis potential. STAT1 and MMP3 maybe become the targets of chemoprevention for post-transplantation urothelial carcinoma.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation promote the recovery of spinal cord injury, and electroacupuncture also can inhibit the proliferation of astrocytes to reduce damage to scar formation, suggesting that a combination of umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation and electroacupuncture may play an important role in the treatment of acute spinal cord injuries. OBJECTIVE:To observe the influence of transplantation of human umbilical cord blood stem cels combined with electroacupuncture at theDu channel on expression of nerve growth factor and neurotrophin 3 in rats with spinal cord injuries. METHODS: Seventy-two female Sprague-Dawlay rats were randomly divided into control group, injury group, transplantation group and combined therapy group. In the control group, only an incision on the back was sutured;in the injury group, a piece of saline-infiltrated gelatin sponge, 1 mm×2 mm×2 mm, was placed into the transected spinal cord at T10 level; in the transplantation group and combined therapy group, a piece of gelatin sponged infiltrated in the suspension of human umbilical cord blood stem cels was placed into the transected spinal cord, respectively, and then, electroacupuncture stimulation at the Duchannel was performed in the combined therapy group at 1 hour after modeling. Specimens were taken at 7, 14, 28 days after modeling in each group, and then immunohistochemistry, western blot and real time-PCR methods were used to detect the expression of nerve growth factor and neurotrophin 3. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the transplantation group, the expression of nerve growth factor and neurotrophin 3 was lower in the injury group but higher in the combined therapy group at 7, 14, 28 days after modeling (P < 0.05). The results of western blot and real time-PCR were consistent with those of immunohistochemical detection. Findings show that human umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation combined with electroacupuncture has a remarkable synergistic effect in the treatment of spinal cord injury that can significantly up-regulate the expression of nerve growth factor and neurotrophin 3, and contribute to injured spinal cord repair, regeneration and functional recovery after spinal cord injury.
